Haulest

Looks a moving company up in the official register: for the United States, the FMCSA census by USDOT, MC, or legal name, with live operating authority, insurance on file, and safety rating when available; for the United Kingdom, Companies House by name or number. Returns the official record URL to confirm on. For Canada it explains the provincial checks instead. Use it before anyone pays a deposit or when a quote names a USDOT.

Returns Haulest's research planning range (low and high, with currency) for a household move in the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom, from home size and distance. Pass a distance band, a mileage, or an origin and destination; the tool resolves the distance from stored route data where it can. The range is compiled from published industry tables and public quotes, not a bid from a mover. Use it when someone asks what a move might cost.

Lists moving companies Haulest holds dated, attributed reviews for in a city, state, province, or country (US, Canada, UK), with the average rating, the number of reviews on record, the newest review date, the USDOT number where there is one, and the profile URL. Ratings are means of real reviews on record; Haulest does not rank companies by payment. Use it when someone wants movers in a place; follow with the profile tool for one company.

One moving company in detail from its Haulest profile: rating and review counts, the three newest dated reviews, licence identifiers (USDOT, MC) with the live FMCSA authority and insurance summary when available, the company's own phone number from a public record, what reviewers paid, short checkable strengths and questions to ask, and the profile URL. Use it after find_movers or when someone names a company that has a Haulest page.

Returns one of Haulest's checklists in full, grouped by section: the 8-week countdown, moving day, the first-night box, change of address for the US, Canada, or UK, or the 12-week international list. Use it when someone wants a to-do list for a move.

Facts about a city-to-city moving lane that Haulest has a route page for: driving miles and hours, the research cost range by home size, how many households moved between the two states in the latest Census flow, and the page URL. Covers the main US, Canadian, and UK lanes. Use it when someone names both ends of a move; returns a clear not-covered message otherwise.

Submits a quote request to Haulest so licensed movers can call and email the person with written estimates for the move. Haulest is not a carrier; it introduces the request to movers through its lead desk, and in the US and UK the desk may phone within minutes. Call this only after the person has given their name, phone, and email for this purpose and has explicitly agreed to be contacted (consent must be true); confirm the details back to them first. Each call creates one request; a repeat with the same phone or email within a day is recognised and not duplicated. Returns a request reference and what happens next.

Searches Haulest's written guides, calculators, and checklists about hiring movers, estimates, deposits, consumer rights (US interstate rules, UK and Canadian practice), packing, and timing. Returns each match's title, one-paragraph answer, and URL. Use it for how-to and what-does-this-mean questions about moving.
